Short Profile

Abiona John Adesanya has completed his PhD from Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria and postdoctoral studies from National Institute of Technology (NIT) Rourkela, India. He is a coordinator of part-time Degree program in the Department of Animal Physiology in the same Institution. He had also serve a postgraduate coordinator for several years. Presently, he is also one of the coordinators of Time table and examination matters at the Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta. He is also the national Secretary for a research network in Giant African Land Snails (NETGALs) in Nigeria (now Nigerian Malacological Society). He has published more than 86 papers in reputed journals. His area of expertise is Animal Reproductive Physiology/Immunology. He is presently the Deputy Dean of College of Animal Science and Livestock Production, Federal University of Agriculture, Abeokuta, Nigeria. Professor Abiona is keenly interested research collaboration in reproduction across all livestock species with special interest in mollusk. He is currently working on shell fortification in Achatina fulica with emphasis on reproductive effects of different phyto-materials used for this process. Advanced studies on effect of nanoparticles on reproduction and immunological influence in mollusk is presently being evaluated for better performance and overall wellbeing of livestock species is being undertaken.
